Charlie has joined the swimathon team at BIBS for a second time to help raise vital money for the NICU ward at the royal berks, where his little brother Wilbur spent two weeks when he was born.

Babies in Buscot Support (BIBS) raise funds to give sick & premature newborns at the RBH the best possible start in life.

The charity is run by parents that have had a baby spend time on Buscot Ward. That is why they care so deeply, and want to make the experience for all babies admitted to Buscot Ward & their families the best it can possibly be.

BIBS work focuses in 4 main areas of activity - keeping Buscot families "SAFE":

Support - providing families with independent emotional support while their baby is on Buscot & beyond.

Awareness - inform parents about what to expect from a stay on Buscot by providing written information & raising awareness of issues related to prematurity or sickness at birth.

Facilities - refurbish facilities & accommodation on the ward to provide a more homely environment.

Equipment - fund state of the art equipment for the ward including incubators, cardiac monitors, ventilators, phototherapy units and much more.
